Black and White Tales, The Book

Barbano Luigi — Tue, 26 Jan 2021 14:53:23 +0000

Before I start with the new projects for 2021, here some final considerations about my Black and White Tales project and the presentation of the book.

The book can be previewed and bought here on Blurb.

I kept the book very simple, with a short version of the tales and just location and camera used for each picture.

See you with the new projects…

Tales and Tiles!

What a difference between them! Never had back pain for a tale…

See you next week when the balcony will be done and I’ll have all the time possible to concentrate on tales instead of tiles!

Sometime we do something that can change our believes. In my case I was already discussing a lot about the use of digital photography, but this picture reinforced in me the idea that we have to stop to blindly follow the technical evolution and start to wonder if we made the right choice.

#9 done, 11 to go! See you soon!

What to say… summer just ended! Ouch!

See you next time when I will be over my end of summer sadness!

Are we losing the sense of beauty?

The sense of beauty is what makes us human but we are forgetting that sometimes.

I didn’t forgot the anniversary of 9/11, I simply did not found a suitable image for what I wanted to say, so I’m here again with another image from the same road trip of the last 2 Tales.

See you next time with another print.

As I anticipated in the last B&W Tale, here another image and another story from the roadtrip I took in South Italy, 30 years ago with my father.

This time we are in Puglia, exactly in Torre Canne and I wonder how the place can be changed in 30 years.

See you next time, probably with another tale and image from the same trip!

When common sense and a decent education disappear, then we need rules for every aspect of our lives.

A moment of a road trip, father and son, became a picture and years later a symbol of the importance of good education.

See you next time, and remember, it’s prohibited to…

Finally after the COVID jail I took some days of vacation. I was in Numana, in the Marche region in Italy. Beautiful place.

Best part of the vacation was to see that people are having enough of all the stupidity of the Italian government and the Covid BS used to enslave us. That was really positive!

Stay well, until the next time!

In the 7th week of Italian Covid lock-down, it is the 75th anniversary of the Italian Liberation from the dictatorships that brought us to WWII.

While now other “leaders”, following the same socialist philosophy, are establishing a new dictatorship all over Europe with the excuse of a virus and the help of bureaucratic non elected worldwide organizations, I decided to homage the real people that freed us. I hope they will do it again, because Europeans are demonstrating one more time to be just sheep ready to lose all their freedom for the impossible promise of safety.

Sadly the people’s memory seems to be very short, the same mistakes are going to be repeated and the trust is wrongly given to the fascists that, wearing now a red shirt, rewrote history.

Personally I have only one creed: Live free or die!

…to the next week!
